Our cystitis video hub covers everything from what cystitis is and its common causes to effective treatments and prevention tips. If you’re dealing with the discomfort of cystitis or want to understand how to prevent it, our expert-led videos are here to help.

Översikt

Cystit is a common urinvägsinfektion (UVI) that causes inflammation of the bladder. It’s more common in women and, whilst it’s usually not serious, it can be really uncomfortable

Orsaker

Cystitis is usually caused by bacteria getting into the urethra and travelling up into the bladder, where they trigger inflammation. This can happen after sex, if you don’t empty your bladder fully, or even just from things like wiping from back to front.

Symptom

Cystitis can leave you feeling like you need to pee all the time, often with a burning sensation, and your urine might look cloudy or smell different.

Treatment and Prevention

Cystitis often clears up with a short course of antibiotika. You can help prevent cystitis by drinking plenty of water, wiping front to back, peeing after sex, and wearing breathable cotton underwear.
